We seem to be getting nice airglow lately. This is my second crazy burst for the month. Initially I was doing a pano and realized I could see striations with the naked eye that correlated with green bands in camera. So I set the camera on timelapse for the rest of the night. The striations rivaled the Milky Way in brightness.
Yep, Lake Ballard. I've been waiting for water to surround this island for awhile. I think the last time it properly surrounded it was 1995? The rainfall a week and a bit ago was the biggest since the 1930s. So I headed out. The water was a bit high for reflections, but still only 10 cm or so deep.
That's some image Colin. Not slowing down at all eh? :-)
Looking forward to seeing the timelapse in a few year's time.. at least airglow moves nice and slow.

Still got the passion Phil, hopefully I don't loose it! The timelapse looks pretty cool. The airglow moves quite fast (for airglow). Quite a bit of cyan in it which is unusual. I really do need to put all these timelapses together!

I will Andrew. Only have a few days left to submit.

That's out my neck of the woods! I didn't realise there was water up there at the moment though. Looks like I should throw a day trip together for the kids tomorrow.
You already know how much I love this one............
Thanks Greg

Good luck. Let me know if the water still surrounds the island?
